Cleverprints - Blog 3 'Happy Days'

'Happy Days'

Hello. Happy Days indeed! Several days of sunshine, crocus and daffodil bulbs showing through and new bird box inhabitants to-ing and fro-ing, all serve to lift the spirit. 

Today's blog features a quick card, ready for a suitable sentiment. 

Happy Days

Materials:-

• A Happy Bloom stamp set by Jane Royston for Cleverprints
• Stamp Pad (Lavinia Bermuda used here)
• Alcohol Markers 
• Black Fineliner
• White Gel Pen
• A4 Card
• Scoreboard

Instructions:-

• On A4 card with short sides top and bottom, make a tiny mark half way down on each side (either pencil or a bone folder.)

• Stamp images to suit, ensuring parts of each image are above the mark line. (advisable not to miss bits, as I have done!!!)

• Once the images are in place, score along the halfway line ONLY on the areas outwith the stamping. This will assist the cutting which comes next. 

• With a craft knife, cut around the stamped images only as far as the scores.

• Colour. (Alcohol Markers)

• Ready to add sentiment. 

Thank you for taking time to visit. I will be back again soon with another blog.

As ever,

Happy Crafting!
